Happy holidays to all!

So my neice and her fiancé live in Annapolis…. He is a recent graduate of the academy. I have him very excited about sailing and I told him he should find a local club and offer his services as crew to get some experience. Any suggestions. He can walk to the main town dock.

Thanks
Greg

If the fiancé is "stashed" at the Naval Academy while waiting for whatever pipeline he's headed to, why not try the USNA Sailing Squadron?

I'm north of Annapolis but when I get back in the water he's welcome to join me as time permits

Try the Eastport Yacht Club. They sponsor the Annapolis to Bermuda race. I attended a seminar by them at the Boat Show on the race, while I"m not suggesting the Fiance should tackle this race, the club seemed to welcome new sailors. Here's a link to some information.

It may not be what your son has in mind but there are active Albacore fleets in the area. The Albacore is a cool little boat for two people. He'd learn a great deal about sailing aboard one.
I'd guess he'd like to hop aboard one of those Ego Alley yachts but his chances with a small boat fleet would be better in my view.

Has his assignment.... I asked him that but think he wants a little breathing room.

Pick up Spinsheet magazine anywhere in Annapolis for free. There is a section for boat owner looking for crew and crew looking for boat. Good luck
